>> republicans have waited eight long years to win control of the senate and they may only have to wait six more days. they show gop candidates widening the gap in several key senate battlegrounds, but it isn't entirely hopeless in states like north carolina and new hampshire. and they can even get a surprise in kansas, but i doubt it. if republicans don't win the

senate on tuesday, charles krauthammer has some advise for them. >> given the climate, if the gop can't win back the senate in a climate like this, maybe the party ought to look for another country. >> let me start with kimberly, we have been talking a lot about the senate races because that's probably the most important thing that's happening. there's a lot of governor's races. today there's an article in the "washington post" talking about how originally in the house, it looked like the republicans might pick up five to seven seats, right now that's possibly in double digits and they're looking at possibly up to 14 or 15. john boehner, the speaker of the house has raised 100 million candidates and despite a very narrow field it might be possible to increase his majority. >> by the way, that's the sleeper of this whole discussion, which is everybody's got the eye on the senate, boehner's got the eye on the house, he's got time to run up

the score. i think it's necessary, why not try and create a larger majority so you have more political capital, more wherewithal so that you get done what you're need to get done with a resounding voice. >> i have a couple of questions for bob, i want to start, bob, because it is october 29. and you said there was going to be a big october surprise. >> two days left. is this surprise still happening? >> i really don't want to talk about it. can i talk about the house? >> were you bluffing about the surprise? >> of course he was. >> boehner has a real reason to want to increase those seats because he doesn't want to be held hostage by the tea party. here's the problem with that, and that's that they wiped out so many democratic seats last time around there aren't that many democratic seats to pick up. he's got this stockholm syndrome, he wants to get out of

the tea box, and i think he'll do it. >> that's the opposite of the stockholm syndrome. >> who wants to be wit those people? >> can i ask eric, and i'll come back to you for a second round. >> yes. >> i have talked to a lot of people in the last 24 hours, thank you. some of them are pessimists, and some are optimists, all republican -- do i talk to anybody else? i'm just kidding. anyway, some are optimists, some are pessimists, last night the pessimists sort of had me down in the dumps. but today, i broadened my pool, and the optimists seem to be winning out. >> harvard put out a study today, 2,000 young people, ages 18 to 29, 51% of the people polled are among those who are definitely going to vote said they would like to see a republican run congress, house

and senate. that's up from 55% who wanted democrats to run in 2010, you saw that election, when 61% are worried about terror attack, and 59% to 39% disapprove of the affordable care act. if people being polled are that much in the develop camp -- >> the gop republicans, the democrats are not going to be voting. that's probably right. here's what it says. it's among likely voters is the poll, but of those who are definitely going to vote, about a quarter of them, 51% of those people prefer the gop. >> i have enjoyed so much -- let's look now at jon stewart. and he makes a point that it doesn't make sense for president obama to come and campaign with them because they need to turn

out their own vote. let's take a look. >> the president, nobody likes him, everybody hates him, even democrats. runni running frantically like barack obama and the other mad men. >> if you look at the fox news poll that was released last night. the question was if president obama's policies were on the november ballot, would you vote for or against and those numbers bear out the same for the last three weeks, people are unhappy with president obama's policies by about 58%. what do you think, greg? >> jon stewart is wrong, they're not running from president obama, they're running from themselves and they're running from john stewart because they're all running from the identical failed believe, which is what that poll is pointing to. they are saying it's him when it's all of them. and using the texas chain saw metaphor implies that the candidates are actually the victims, they are not the

victims. jon stewart is not a victim, they are the accessories. they created the monster that they are now running from. they are not innocent in all of this, they believe in everything president obama believes. i just want to go back, the republicans should not be beaming at this point. the only reason why the republicans are winning is the democrats are losing. this is not a victory, it's a reprieve and it means little if you don't actually have a greater vision and a monster candidate who's going to win in 2016, this is just a stay of execution, if you don't come up with an idea. but could you race your right arm for a minute, take a look at this. take a look at her arm. i thought you escaped from the back seat of a cop car. it's like half of a hand cuff. >> can i point out? you said 58% has not changed in the last three weeks and that's right because those people are now voting, have been voting against obama, obama's people for a long time. >> can i have a word of caution

for a little bit, do you notice? no matter what happens, no matter what momentum, turn out the vote, all the opportunities in their favor, all of the democrat -- >> i want to disagree with you about this. >> only if you show the bracelet. >> see, it's half of a handcuff. whatever you're into. >> look, okay, look, the republican party is besieged with people who are like the danny downers, i'm calling them. you're going to read more about this in the next day or so because i have a column coming. if democrats, if they have a bad day, no democrat says they had a bad day, if democrats are ahead, no democrat also say we suck and we're probably going to lose. i think republicans have got to shed this negativity, because look at the candidates we have this time around, we think they're very good.

all sorts of candidates, incumbents have been to campaign. rand paul has been everywhere, t tom -- and not complain so much that they're not doing enough because winning back the senate is a huge deal. >> they i have to do this to change their normal view of life. >> i think that's changing. >> i think that the angry old republican is changing to a more optimistic view. >> really? >> yes, and i think that bears out in most of the states, joni ernst for example in iowa. the denver post which believe me they love the democrats, they love the incumbent mark udall because he runs a -- anybody with me, eric? >> yes, but also i think it comes from the other side as well. i think the electorate is sick

of -- and president obama keeps saying i'm not on the ballot, but he really is. remember when president obama turned to dmitry medvedev that after the election i can do more of what i want to do. there are checks and balance s throughout the constitution that obama keeps side stepping. he keeps saying he's going to go around congress. when young people, 18 to 29 say at 57%, we don't want obama, we don't want obama -- >> get your numbers straight. >> bob -- >> will you take that into account, likely voters. likely voters. >> i'm only talking about the gop ones, 57%. >> likely voters. >> bob, if it were the opposite,

you would be shouting it from the skies. young people disapprove of obama care, when have you ever heard that? >> do yourself a favor, folks, go to the harvard study online. >> i would like to give you a little lecture on voter turnout. democrats is usually pretty good. republicans, they have tried this time around, we'll see how that works out. but there's something that the republicans have done differently this year, i wonder if you can give us a view of voter turnout. >> they have been way behind the democrats in doing this, but they finally are recognizing that that part of the campaign process is an important part. the democrats have always put a bigger percentage of hispanic votes. the republicans are ready to peel some of that and put it into turn out the vote. and they should. and also to suppress -- i want to sue preppress republican vot much as i possibly can. that vote was fine.

>> oh, wow. >> but you're also talking about absentee ballots. >> the absentee ballots are now much closer between democrats and republicans. if you look at the last three elections, democrats had by far and away -- they focused on that, they had somebody in charge of that, republicans now are doing that. something that had not been happening up until got a decade ago. >> what do you think the impact of that will be? >> i think it will impact the republicans. >> in a wave election, which turns out to be one. all the way down ticket, it's called, they tend to do very well. and i have a question for you, greg. we have one minute left. if you -- if the republicans win, whether it be nationally or in the state senate. what would be the first thing on your agenda to get past. >> you got to go for the pipeline. you got to go for what's going to help america.

you have to start thinking about jobs, you have to start thinking about energy independence. >> also what you can do for me, greg gutfeld. >> i actually did a speech on sunday and that was the question, what would be the first thing, jobs in the pipeline, number one, get yourself self sufficient in energy and a lot of people said reform immigration before president obama does it because that's coming down the pipeline. >> they might not have time if the president does it in the next two -- fascinating, they ought to repeal obama care and rewrite the whole thing. >> what about the unicorn issue? >> he'll vito anything of those things he's talking about, if they talk tax reform, tax reform, tax reform. >> if you s. >> he snapped his suspenders three times that the republicans

will win the senate. >> there's a cool website. >> i don't know anything about -- >> suspender snapping. the nurse who fought her way out of quarantine -- and she's going to toll you why, coming up.

the obama administration still won't ban travellers from west africa who might have ebola from coming into the country. and even worse, it's now considering intentionally bringing foreigners with the deadly disease, virus, to america for treatment. fox news exclusively impanelled an internal memo that describes a process for bringing noncitizens here. >> what it would basically do is circumnavigate current u.s. law by allowing u.s. citizens to be admitted here, we pay for them to come here for u.s. treatment. these non-u.s. citizens would essentially be getting a fast

pass. they would have to be put on parole. they have to set up new ways to monitor these patients and find hospitals for them to go to. each patient according to this document would cost $500,000 for treatment. >> wow. the state department's denying signing off on the plan. >> the document reference was drafted by a mid level official but not cleared by senior leaders, there are no plans to medevac nonamericans who are ill will ebola to come to the united states. that was approved by nancy powell, the head of the ebola coordination unit. that suggests they were fairly far along in the process sometimes they're listed and they signed off on it. >> we saw obama talking today in front of all those doctors, it's an on going parade of straw men and false choices. either you treat the doctors like heros or we're going to

stigmatize them. that's not true. we adored astronauts and they were quarantined. now you can do both. this ebola asylum idea, and i hope it was just an idea, you have to be guest for purely medical reasons because the only people at risk for ebola are people who are close to patients with ebola. that's going to be putting u.s. doctors and nurses at more risk. we don't need anymore cases there. my point is, we don't need to do that, i'm talking about that because u you're putting u.s. nurses and u.s. doctors at risk. i'm thinking it was the product of a brainstorming meeting that was all storm and no brain. >> kg, did you see those doctors behind president obama today? some of them haven't finished their 21-day all clear yet, they have come back from liberia or one of the affected countries.

but they're that close to the president of the united states. >> if they're that desperate for a photo-op to put the president at risk. why can't they just do the right thing? it doesn't even seem to be that difficult. you don't have to have a medical degree to -- the u.s. taxpayers are going to be footing the bill for all this, there are only four hospitals in the united states that have biocontainment units, each of them with 11 beds each. they are outsuourcing, because they're caring for the u.s. doctor that's there, dr. spencer, so they can't even care for the normal patients they take, the influx, this is enormous expense to patients. >> it seems to me that this is so outrageous that they would float the idea of foreigners coming here with ebola, be treated here just to keep our eye off the ball and some of the other things that are going on.

>> i want to congratulate kimberly here, the first one that wishes obama good health. >> and you too, i'll take that back for the most part. i don't think it's to detract anything, i think it's the right thing to do. these people work for u.s. agencies and u.s. corporations. >> this is what i think could have possibly happened, presiden he had the cabinet room meeting and he brought everybody together. this was right around when he announcement that he would appoint ron klain. i think they were late to get to this so they're trying to figure out all the things that were possible that they probably asked mid level staffers and i wish they wouldn't always be thrown under the bus, because they probably said send to the president any idea, and then maybe it was rejected, maybe it wasn't, maybe it was still in the hopper, but i'm not against them at least thinking about things. american taxpayers have donated

so much money to africa and they have done a huge amount on aids, on other sort of diseases that come up, like river blindness, things like that, and it's an investment worth protecting and it was one of those ideas that probably wasn't going to go anywhere and the mid level staffers probably should not be criticized on it. >> casey -- forced into quarantine in new jersey, fought it every step of the way, now she's back in her home state of maine and she's still vowing to fight quarantine orders there. >> i do believe that this policy is not scientifically just i will not be bullied by politicians and forced to stay in my home when i am not a risk to the american public. if the restrictions placed on me by the state of maine are not lifted by thursday morning, i will go to court to fight for my freedom. >> bob, you're raising your finger.

>> if this woman would stop whining so much and keep in mind that she was exposed to ebola, 21 days at home in maine ain't a bad deal, so you can just do it. >> do you want to talk about the legal implications of this or no? >> maybe. she represents, take a look at her, everything that's best and worse about this country. because the bottom line is she did go over there and give up her time and put herself in jeopardy to treat other people. should have stop there had. because now she's just slapping at her patriotism and good deeds by diluting it by making a big stink. this is 21 days and you care and you have devoted your life to the health and safety of others why can't you give a little bit of your time, by peacefully, staying at home and reading and enjoying a good book. dana, you said you would be reading 100 books in 21 days.

>> you were talking about the people of west africa, how about american citizens? >> scientifically, she's right, but it's probably not that much to ask to accept the reasonable response of the governors and maybe this -- i hope it doesn't discourage people who want to go and help from going to help. but they are probably going to need to factor in a three-week long quarantine when they get back. in fact the state of california just established that protocol today, everybody who wants to go and help, they should go and help, but they need to factor it in. >> the nurse may seem arrogant but she may not be wrong. there may not be a compelling reason for her staying home other than public concern. is that good enough? i think it is. we go back to -- she's completely within her legal rights to do what she chooses

but should she have, knowing there's public concern, shouldn't she just bite the bullet? it's not a lot to ask. this goes back to the false choice argument, either you think she's a hero or eyou demo ize her? >> the difference between god and the ebola nurse, god doesn't think he's this ebola nurse. it costs big bucks just to send one kid to college -- a dad in california has eight, and although he could save up, he says he won't. that's next.

he says that teaches him the value of work, while also pointing them towards professions that they light like, it makes sense, college doesn't corner the market in education. that's my point, you should help your kid figure out what he loves because all college teaches him to love is college. four years of fooling around, stumbling home drunk and sneaking in, what's not to love. i loved it so much, i did it until i was 40. take the current novelty of identity as achievement, which values being instead of doing.

a stick on the self, college becomes therapy which champions internal infatuation. the result, self righteousness. no longer an incubator of ideas, the classroom becomes an impenetrable double where the mold of experience grows. it brings you into contact with actual real people means none. we used to call it the school of hard knocks, it was the lost art of self-reliance, if we bring that back, we might rescue this country from the incubated release current in charge. we b better do it fast, their diapers are full. peeking of diapers, you have a child, allegedly, i have never met him. i hear he's a bundle of joy. does a parent have a choice? are you going to force your kid to find his own way through college? >> he's already saving his money

in his "superman" wallet. >> he is? >> absolutely. he hordes cash so hopefully it will amount to something. >> we're thifty in a friendly way and we like to be generous with others, but nevertheless, we're responsible with our finances, that's how i'm raising him, you've got to have a job like i did. it wasn't like kimberly, would you like to get a job, i has three jobs, i was all about it. school is a great thing, reward yourself with it by getting a job and paying for it. when i wanted to go to law school, what did i do? >> we won't get into that. >> i bet if you homeschooled roan unanimous, all his classmates would want to enroll. >> there's a few that have signed up already. >> kg academy. parent teacher conference is every night. bob, you have offspring, hard to believe.

>> i didn't pay for college and i can say that i didn't take it seriously at all. and i guess it's because you value stuff that you get for free far less. i know i did. >> your skewed judgment about collegeses and universities, it's got on to the point now where it's mind-boggling, it's stupid. let me give you an example, i went out on parents weekend to meet my daughter's professors. three out of five of her professors are conservative. >> in boulder? >> in boulder, believe it or not, they took all the red boogs back and they hid them. >> they were conservative by your standards? >> they liked you guys but they didn't like me on "the five." >> so they're kind of normal. >> i think the idea of working to get yourself into college is a good idea. i think working at college is a good idea. i think it makes some sense. i actually have not followed my own advise on that with my daughter, if you can afford it,

you ought to do it, if not, the idea of them working hard is not bad. >> if you're a self-made man, isn't there a belief that when you become successful. you don't want them to go through the same stuff you did, that's why a lot of parents will pay for the best colleges. >> maybe that's to the mistake. the thing that motivated me by far more than anything else, yeah, parents motivate, but seeing how they had to live. a lot of us, i'm guilty of this myself, i give my son things they don't make them work for, it's probably a mistake, so he'll never have that drive when he's out in the workforce to say i'm not going to get that unless i work hard for it. but by not providing that incentive, that kind of organic incentive to work harder, it's an mistake i'm guilty of myself. >> i think some kids are born with the idea that they want --

>> they have drive. >> what about loans, scholarships and grant programs. >> dana, you actually got a scholarship at your school. >> my parents would have paid for college, but they loved it that i got a scholarship. >> what was your scholarship for. >> for the speech team. >> fantastic. >> and i loved it. i loved the speech team, i highly recommend it. i just think that telling your children that you're not going to pay for college is not child abuse, it forces you to focus and to prior -- prioritize. there's lots of options for paying for college. >> i think that colleges should place a two-year moratorium on their graduating students to not be allowed to work for the university for two years and if they have to go out into the world, go out and do something and then apply and want to come back. too many people end up taking their work study program and

making it their actually careers and they end up in the schools. >> still if you pay for it yourself, you'll still be in debt for two years. >> i went to berkeley. >> i and i went to uc davis, by you have to have good grades, they take the top 2% in the country. work hard, get good grades and then you can get into a college that's more affordable. >> dana, did you get a letterman's jacket? >> actually in high school i did. >> that's nice. but we had terrible colors, no offense mustangs. >> gold and maroon, it doesn't look good on me. >> it's in high school. >> i was also offered a softball scholarship, no one cares. >> i care. >> all right, i don't care. >> i got a scholarship. >> i did get an athletic scholarship 12k3w4r6789 ahead,
